Explore the “Personal Accountability and the QBQ!” multi-media training system!
by: John Miller & Kristin Lindeen
It’s not about “corporate responsibility” but Personal Accountability!
Have you ever heard questions like these?
- “Why do we have to go through all this change?”
- “Why is this happening to me?”
- “When is someone going to train me?”
- “When is that group going to do its job right?”
- “Who dropped the ball?”
- “When am I going to find good people?”
- “Why can’t they communicate better?”
- “Who’s going to solve the problem?”
If you have…then the message of QBQ!, The Question Behind The Question, is right for you and your organization! In a time when responsibility seems to be lacking, QBQ! is a tool that can make a meaningful difference by eliminating costly organizational traps such as: blaming, complaining, procrastination, organizational politics, we vs. they and negative self talk.
It is all about personal accountability and asking: “How can I contribute?” and “What can I do to make a difference?” QBQ! will additionally enhance pro-action, team work, leadership, ownership, service, creativity, communication, integrity, belief and career thinking vs. job thinking!
This course has a major objective of establishing a culture of Personal Accountability in business and in life. It is flexible as it can be used as a one-day course or a series of four 2-hour sessions.
